All funds for the ARRA GIGP 2009 have been awarded.
The Green Innovation Grant Program (GIGP) established under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) had a very busy year. During the first year of the program, EFC committed $44.4 million to 49 projects (35 clean water and 14 drinking water). The successful projects were selected from 295 highly competitive applications requesting more than $460 million of funding. To view details about the GIGP projects that were awarded funding through ARRA 2009, click here.
For the purpose of ARRA 2009 funding via the SRF, green infrastructure included:
- Water efficiency, reuse or conservation- projects that are either part of or serve a water or wastewater utility project;
- Energy efficiency- projects that reduce energy consumption, use renewable energy, or produce clean energy for water or wastewater facilities;
- Green wet weather infrastructure- projects that maintain, restore, or mimic natural systems to infiltrate, evapotranspire, or recycle stormwater; or
- Environmental innovation- projects that manage water resources to prevent or remove pollution in an economically sustainable way.
